Hot Deal on Blank Minidisc Media and Accessories

[MrBond]

Going out of business sale, I guess. Good prices, his lowest priced minidiscs are still cheaper then Minidisco (by about 40 cents).

Hmm, you can still get 10 packs for $15.00 and 20 packs for $27.00 at your local Best Buy B&M.

 

[MrBond]

Yep, but for the [few] people who aren't near either, this is a pretty good deal. B&M deals are still the best for Minidiscs

Do any of you guys know where they sell the MP3 cable for minidiscs? I think it connects to USB and minidisc, and you can transfer the MP3 directly, or something like that....

HKS,
It will not be a digital transfer if that matters for you. Minidisco used to sell them. Check it out.

I personally love the Hi-Space blanks. They look great compared to the Sony Blanks. Don't like the black backing. Makes the colors almost impossible to see. Kheops is a great place. Real shame that they are going out of business. Oh there are USB to Minidisc converters. I know Minidisco carries them but, I know that there are other places as well. Can't remember where. But there are both digital and analog now as well thought the digital ones are a bit spendy in my opinion. My take is to go out and buy a MaxiSound Fortissimo for $50 bucks which gives you a toslink optical out on your computer. Boom instant digital recordings.

BestBuy.com has a 5-pack of Sony MD blanks for $10.99 with free shipping. Also an 8-pack with a nice storage case for $16.99

whats the point of an mp3 cable? you can get analog transfer via a $3 phono cable you can buy anywhere... and the quality is just as good

 

[MrBond]

You can get one of those converter boxes at the site I listed, and IIRC, it may convert the signal into a digital signal.

I wouldn't really spend the money on one, to me, I can hear no difference between a recording from my DVD Player via optical out, then to when I run it through the speakers on my computer with a line-out plug.

This might be of interest. Amazon.com has 20 colored Memorex minidiscs for $26.99 w/ free shipping. They don't come w/ individual cases though. But they're only $1.35 each.
